Depends on the deck but you need to be careful how much weight you put on some bearings. I use one occasionally, its a Project weight that came with the RCM, it doesn't make a huge difference, nothing unplayable becomes playable, some dished records look flatter though!
tldr, cheapest DIY option is to forget about it.
I've got a couple of warped (concave) records.
Until I get around to attempt straightening I thought a record weight might improve matters.
Something with a lip along the periphery of the label would push the raised part of the record down towards the platter, I would think.
Anyone got suggestions? I prefer cheap and/or DIY.
